| 1 car, 3 cops, 92 grounds, 92 hours, 2,400 miles all to raise £25,000 for SCH 10:40 - Jun 25 with 1976 views | ninetytwo |
Firstly, thank you for reading this thread, as I am aware there are quite a few similar topics that go on. I am hopeful that the football link involved will capture some attentions!!
We are three serving police officers from Sheffield, South Yorkshire and in July, we will be taking on the challenge of visiting all 92 football league grounds in 92 hours. Within our trio, we have an Owl, a Blade and Spurs fan (That generally gets asked quite quickly!)
One car, 3 cops, 92 grounds, 92 hours, 2,400 miles. We are taking on this challenge to raise money for The Children’s Hospital Charity, which supports Sheffield Children’s Hospital and serves the whole of the North of England and much wider in some circumstances.
www.justgiving.com/fundraising/ninetytwo-in-92
Sheffield Children’s Hospital is one of just three standalone specialist children’s hospitals in the UK. More than 269,000 patient journeys are made to the hospital each year and its work changes children’s lives from across the UK and around the world every day. My own daughter was born with a heart defect which I have previously discussed on here when raising money for the hospital who looked after her welfare amazingly for a couple of years and we now have friends and colleagues who have their own children currently being treated in the Leukemia ward of the hospital. We are so lucky to have this amazing facility here to give people the best care possible.
We will be driving over 2,400 miles in a car and riding bikes to reach the London clubs. We will be eating and sleeping (not much) in the vehicle to complete the challenge to make sure we stick to our 92-hour limit.We will start this challenge at Barnsley Football Club at 8pm on Friday 12th July before arriving back at Bramall Lane at 4pm on Tuesday 16th July.
We are trying to raise £25,000 for this amazing charity and we would love it if you could support us in any way possible. In the last few weeks we have set up social media profiles on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook as can be seen below. Any donation that anyone can give would be massively appreciated. If you are not in a position to donate then any help you can give through retweets, shares and likes, etc to help us gain as much exposure as possible would also be appreciated
Every single penny that is made in charitable donations will go directly to transforming the Cancer and Ward at the Hospital.
Thank you once again for reading our post and if this is something you are willing to support we would really appreciate it.
Give us a wave as we get to and go through Rochdale!!
If there is any chance this could be pinned that would also be really appreciated.
Scott Sarson, James Thorpe and Jamie Henderson

You ought to check your facts before you post,the miners strike was 84 not 89 and some wounds don't heal | |

Either way, whether you were voicing an opinion on either the miners' strike in 1984 or Hillsborough in 1989, it was crass comment.
Whatever perceived 'wounds' may still exist, these lads weren't responsible for causing them. | |

A very worthwhile cause and i hope as much money as possible is raised. However, you must ask what kind of country do we live in when we have the unelected, out dated,parasitic freak show known as the royal family being given over £2 million of tax payers money to spend on house refurbishment. |  | | |

It will look nice when it's finished though.
Personally, I'd be more worried about that crackpot journalist trying to spread this sh!te..

I'm not sure about my comment being crass but I do agree that it was wrong of me to say it,I shouldn't have judged them when I know absolutely nothing about them and I apologise | |

To be honest, it's in several rags today and various internet sites. She must be stealing a wage with duff stuff like that. | |

Chalky’s rant aside...& acknowledge what he has said..ðŸ‘
Sometimes people post on here for good causes, but my take on it is...
Yes 100% agree, any children’s hospital is a very worthy cause.
But... why is the Government turning them into we need donations?
Hopefully Boris Will Sort😀
A lot of mileage to cover, the state of our speeds & managed motorways, best of luck averaging more than 30 mph unless they are using a squad car with blues & twos unless avoiding rush hours?
You run the risk of death cycling round London if Jeremy Clarkson is in town..
Lack of sleep??, not a great sacrifice is it really?
Hope you raise some money seriously but to quote Dragons Den, I’m out..
Just my thoughts, ... not exactly a hardship when others do a lot more personally like 7 marathons in 7 days, sounds like a jolly boys outing to me |  |

Thank you for re-thinking and being big enough to apologise. We were 3, 2 and 1 year old respectively at the time of the miners strike and no doubt either sucking dummies or watching 'dangermouse' or is that too early? We are just three normal footy mad blokes trying to do our bit and raise some funds. Come and meet us at the ground when we land and you'll see that.... | | | |

I wish it was a jolly boys outing. We normally have a weekend away every summer but have replaced that to do this and trust me this will be a slog.
I personally am a runner so would much rather run 7 marathons in 7 days than do this! 4 Days permanently in a car with two other blokes and very little sleep 
Either way - we'll crack on and raise as much as we possibly can | | | |

That's brill mate thank you very much - the power of the football family eh! We hope you have a great season whatever it may have in store for you.
I've only been to Rochdale ground once which was around 7 years ago and from memory we lost and some of our idiot fans started ripping some of the advertising boards down at the back of the stand.
Cracking chip shop just outside the ground was the highlight!! | | | |
